The 17 astonishing lies, claims & assumptions in the GACP Sports Newcastle United takeover brochure
This time it's a familiar face fronting it up with former Manchester United and Chelsea chief Peter Kenyon flanked by the money men of GACP in the shape of Joseph DaGrosa Jnr, David Neithardt and Hugo Varela.
Last night a dossier was leaked to the press detailing their proposals for a takeover of United, and their promises to investors in the project.
Here we take a forensic look at the document and reveal the inaccuracies, errors and bold claims made by the group.
1. Unprofessional research?
"Player transfer market values according to transfermarkt.com" - this is not a quote you want to read ANYWHERE! Photo: -
2. Unreliable and inaccurate squad valuations
On page 18 - yet more transfermarkt 'screengrabs' this time with Rafa Benitez as manager and the likes of £30million Leicester City striker Ayoze Perez still valued in the Magpies' squad. Photo: -
3. Rolling back the years
On page 15 of the dossier, there's a photo of United's team quite clearly taken in the summer of 2018 - hardly up to date is it? Dwight Gayle is even in black and white. Photo: -
4. A selling club? Definitely, if GACP have anything to do with it
Another familiar path is the group's idea that they can position the club to "sell top talent for significant funds allowing for sustained reinvestment in the squad". Photo: Ian MacNicol
